I can't find much help with running this on linux, because most of the playerbase is on windows.
Tried running it with Proton versions older than experimental, and that resulted in this error:
Then tried it with Proton Experimental, but it got stuck on Launching... Running steam from the command line didn't yield much information either (And even when I got lucky and it got past Launching and into Running, it didn't actually run anything.)
At this point, my launch options were looking like
PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 PROTON_LOG=1 %command%
I deleted my old prefix at steamapps/compatdata. Installed GE-proton 8-6. Tried running again while forcing the use of GE. Nothing. Tried a couple more times. Then removed the
PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1. And it worked! Except... When I launched it again immediately having closed it. It went back to its old self, Running but not actually running. After a while, I tried again, and reinstalled GE-8-9. Still nothing.I would really appreciate any kind of help on this. It feels like I can't have a single clue as to what could be going wrong. Thank you.
